Many class actions are dismissed or never certified, so a case being filed does not mean anyone will be paid. If it settles and a claim process opens, that will be announced by a court-appointed settlement administrator.
- Where is the PowerSchool Holdings Data Breach Class Action case being heard?
- The case is before the District Court, S.D. California, case number 3:25-cv-01030. Everything alleged in the complaint is an allegation, not a proven fact.
